Sigh. I guess we couldn't expect Hubert to have much respect for our leaders. Now if it was the Napolean Day Sale...

 
Is that just base HZD, no Complete Edition?  :/  I remember it being on sale for like $20 in December-ish, can't believe it's even more now even "on sale".  

 
Thanks, but nothing for me.

Side question: does anyone have experience with preorders after a gap in your GCU membership?  Specifically: I have GCU and I preordered a game (RDR2) with the 20% discount.  My GCU membership ends in the summer.  I was thinking of not renewing it until closer to RDR2's release date, so I will have GCU active when the preorder is fulfilled.  Just wondering if that gap in my membership (between summer and fall) would mess up the preorder?

Hope there’s more than that. MvCI might not be too bad with GCU at $15.99.

Same thought I had. Was going to pick it up at Target next week as it goes on sale for the same price but now I’ll get it for $16 at BB plus add a little points towards a $5 rewards certificate.
 
Wow these are very uncompetitive sales. Horizon was cheaper on BF and that was many months ago now. Mirror's Edge has been like $5 or $10 digitally and physically quite often at various retailers. The only one maybe worth it is MvC, which is practically just a rerelease.

I shouldn't be upset about MvC:I being that cheap this quick but god damn that pisses me off.  For such a solid franchise they completely bombed this entry.

I can't say with 100% confidence, but I am pretty sure you will only get the GCU discount if your account is active when you pick up the pre-order. I could be wrong though. Since GCU is so cheap for 2 years, I just pay the $30 when mine is coming up and renew it. I probably use it at least once or twice a month, if not more.

I picked it up a few weeks ago for the same price and have yet to play it. I thought that I would get around to it, but then I went ahead and bought Dragon Ball FighterZ, between that, Monster Hunter, and Shadow of the Colossus I have not had time to even look at the back of the MvCI box.

 
Darn, this is exactly what I came in here to ask. Feels like it's taking ages for Happy Death Day and Jigsaw to drop to a reasonable price. :(
You can get them from Target. Jigsaw is $19.99 and Happy Death Day is $23. Buy those 2, and you get another movie for free. Add another $20 movie and you’re getting each one for about $15

Must be vanilla, since it says "Save $10", and vanilla is $40, whereas Complete is $50.

Oh well, I will continue to wait to rebuy it as Complete. $24 would have done for me now, I may hold out for $20 if it takes another six months to get there.

Yeah, I spent a good portion of last night wandering through the aisles at Target looking for a third movie with no luck. It had been my plan to pick up the just-released Dr. Who Twice Upon A Time blu, but Target doesn't carry it in-store and it's not eligible via the site. :(

lot of targets have the deluxe edition merged to the same item number FYI mine has a bunch gonna get it for $20 sunday there

 
waiting for Dragon Ball Z Fighters drop
Same. I’m happy to wait while I clear my backlog out though!

I have to duck MvC: Infinite like the plague. Capcom made the series mediocre & I'm not try to back that kind of work.

I can't believe that this is the first time I've seen it on sale. I had to get mine used from GS during a B2G1 sale.
I was going to post the same thing. Only other time was part of frys b2g1 sale on BF, but that turned out to be a cluckfest with huge store pickup lines. ARMS is probably guaranteed to be a $30 "best hits" title if they ever get around to it though.

 
Marvel vs Capcom Infinite is a decent game(much better than that POS MVC3) but at this point the online is just diehard fans and the $20 version doesn't have the DLC Characters. Might as well wait for the $5-10 range.

It only matters that you pre-ordered when your GCU was active (to get the membership discount). Your membership being expired at any point after won't affect the discount (according to a customer service rep I spoke to a few months ago).

Once a transaction is done, they can’t charge your card more on the back end. You can only be charged less.

I'm just not a fan of MVC3 at all. It's honestly one of the worst things Cacpom has ever done as a company. It plays like someone who never touched MVC2 or the CPS2 Marvel games trying to 'fix' them with no regard as to how and why certain elements in them worked. At competitive levels or even just messing around in training or against the AI, it  feels too weird and 'forced' to me. And the system they used for hit detection....ugh.

I could write essays on why I hate that game, it legit killed my interest in taking fighters 'seriously' for awhile.

 
Hmm should I return mvc deluxe and rebuy pricematching bestbuy. Are the dlc characters that came out December 5 the only characters we’ll get from the character pass?
 
Largely unimpressive. Yakuza steelbook for 15/12 not bad. Not gaming, but I like "buy $50 Nike GC, get $10 BB card". I was looking at getting the PG2 in the near future so a little bonus wouldn't hurt.

Speaking of PGs, I wanted to get the PG1 2K colorways way back when they were announced and (am I wrong or were) they never released?
 
I bought MVCI the last time Best Buy put it on sale for $19.99. It was about a month ago. Still don't know what to think. The story mode is corny as hell, but at least there is one. The roster is probably the worst of all time. No X-Men characters because of that stupid beef with Fox and the MCU. Hardly any actual "new" characters. Like anyone really wanted Spencer to come back. Jesus. The character models are horrible as well. Chun-Li looks like shit. The whole thing just feels rushed and half-assed. I wonder if we are going to get the 2018 character pass or if they are just going to kill it after the EVO news.
